Another poor week on Gibraltar
Hi fellow Ringers
Been on Gib.today to collect last weeks ringing data and again it is not good news for migrants from Africa. NEW BIRDS RETRAPS BLACKBIRD 0 2 BLACKCAP 3 0 CHAFFINCH 1 0 CHIFFCHAFF 6 0 GOLDFINCH 1 0 GREENFINCH 1 0 HOUSE SPARROW 1 0 ROBIN 1 0 SARDINIAN WARBLER 4 1 WILLOW WARBLER 4 0 My ringer on the rock was not even able to open the nets on 4 days out of the 7 due to adverse weather conditions. Things can only get better. At least the first Willow Warblers have started to move through. Your Gibraltar Correspondent Tchagra (Ricardo) |

Chiff Chaffs and Blackcaps around here today but as you say , not a lot else.
Point those Willow Warblers this way 'n give 'em a push.

Willow warbler at our local res. today suggests a slow northerly movement - we've had wheatear, too, but no ring ousels yet. An osprey, too, yesterday.
